H.O.W. Journal is a bi-annual non-profit art & literary journal founded in 2006. It features a mix of prominent contemporary writers and artists alongside upcoming talents in a variety of disciplines—fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and visual art. H.O.W. Journal is published each spring and fall. The next issue, Issue 6, is set for release in April 2010. Each issue release is accompanied by a fund-raising event. Currently, H.O.W. is raising funds to start an art, music and film-making program for Safe Space—a foster home in Queens, New York. ==History== H.O.W. Journal was founded by Alison Weaver and Natasha Radojcic in 2006. They sought to create an intellectually and aesthetically stimulating art and literature journal featuring established as well as emerging artists from various genres. They continue to work with Stamatis Birsimijoglou, Art Director, to create a visually stunning magazine. The H.O.W. acronym stands for Helping Orphans Worldwide and it refers to the second goal of the founding editors. H.O.W. Journal, Helping Orphans Worldwide, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, tax exempt organization. Proceeds from the journal have been used in an ongoing effort to raise money and awareness for various orphan-related humanitarian causes. The dual goals of HOW have been summed up by founding editor Alison Weaver as follows: “The vision we had when creating H.O.W was to appeal to a young, modern readership who hold both an avid interest in the arts as well as a general compulsion toward social consciousness. H.O.W. gives its readers a visually hip journal filled with talented artists and writers, while at the same time allowing them to support children that are in dire need of our help. I have noticed a shift in the world over the last decade, and I believe the new generation feels an urge to actively make a difference. H.O.W. gives them an opportunity to do just that.” H.O.W. Journal is published biannually. Each issue launch is accompanied by a fund-raising event that both promotes the journal and contributes to the goal of raising money and awareness of the charity being supported. H.O.W. Journal is currently based in Tribeca. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「H.O.W. Journal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
